3 1. Redress the Imbalance of Negative Psychology: Aaron T. Beck and David A. Clark Therapists and psychologists have exhibited a depressive thinking style in their theories, research and treatment of psychological disorders. We have tended to focus exclusively on the negative as in symptoms or what s wrong with people Our preoccupation has been the relief of suffering, the alleviation of negative emotions it is clearly not the whole story Improve Health and Well Being Outcomes Treating negative mood will not automatically lead to happiness in our patients. A new and expanded therapeutic perspective is needed that directly addresses issues of happiness, meaning, and contentment. Two goals in Healthcare today: 1. Cure /manage disease, disability, disorder 2. Preserve or enhance clients quality of life, wellbeing, and happiness Beef Up Your Evidence Based Assessments To make progress, we have to measure it. 9 3

Rodrigue of Harvard and Beth Israel Rodrigue and others 2005 Rodrigue and others 2006 Rodrigue and others 2011 Replication in different lab: Abedi, M.R. and Vostanis, P. (2010).

7 Results of RCT: From page 2430 of Rodrigue et al. 2005: Several primary findings emerged from this study: 1. A brief, targeted psychological intervention, that is, Quality of Life Therapy, leads to significant improvements in quality of life, mood disturbance, and social intimacy 2. Improvements in quality of life and mood appear to be maintained for as long as 3 months after treatment. 3. While the treatment-as-usual protocol appears to yield some short-term benefits in mood, Quality of Life Therapy was found to be a more effective treatment overall for transplant patients. 19 Contagious to Caregivers Caregivers whose spouses received QOLT reported vicarious gains in quality of life, mood, and social intimacy, relative to those who received the usual or standard intervention involving emotional and educational support. These findings suggest that beneficial effects extend beyond the client to their spouses who are often caregivers. Rodrigue et al. (2006). Caregivers of patients awaiting lung transplantation: Do they benefit when the patient is receiving psychological services? Progress in Transplantation, 16, , pp MBF204 Replication Study: Rodrigue et al. 2011, pp. 709 Quality of Life Therapy while patients wait for KIDNEY transplant The current study found that the Quality of Life Therapy group had superior quality of life outcomes relative to both Supportive Therapy and Standard Care groups. 21 7
